This two-mile stretch of beach is a great destination; its clear water protected by the offshore sandbar and several lifeguards always on duty. In addition to the beach, the park maintains walking trails, picnic and cookout areas, and concessions. The Visitors' and Nature Center has a gift shop and hosts numerous nature walks and programs. The Family Amusement Center sports a refurbished carousel, outdoor skating rink, beachfront playground, and splash fountain. Crandon Park Gardens boasts over 200 acres of lush tropical habitat and carefully designed botanical gardens. Crandon Park Golf Course and Tennis Center are adjacent to the park; Crandon Park Marina, across the street, offers boat rentals, fishing charters, and other amenities.
